Compact, extremely maneuverable and rated for an impressive 285 lb. lifting capacity, Presto ECOA says the lift it is ideal for lifting and transporting items in a wide range of industrial, retail, laboratory, food processing, pharmaceutical and office environments.
Presto ECOA says loads on the lift are evenly distributed over four oversized casters that roll easily over thresholds and uneven floors. Additionally, a unique adjustable width base can be set as narrow as 20 in., for use in tight quarters or as wide as 28 in., to provide extra stability for wider loads. A foot actuated rear caster lock keeps the unit from moving during loading, unloading or when used as a variable height worksurface, the company says.
The standard platform is 19.5 in. by 19.5 in., and is made from extremely durable UMHW polyethylene. Presto ECOA says wood laminate or stainless-steel platforms are also available. Lifting and lowering controls are conveniently placed within reach of the push handle and can be operated during transport.
The company says lifting speed is a quick 4.75 in. per second. The battery powered lift mechanism consists of a steel reinforced cam belt. Because the lift is mechanical and not hydraulic, there is zero platform drift and no possibility of process contamination due to fluid leaks. A battery-charge status indicator is mounted near the push handle in direct operator view. Battery charging is done via an onboard 110V charger, the company adds.
Finally, the LiftStik can be equipped with a wide variety of options including reel rotators, mandrels, v-cradles, forks, an articulating boom with lifting hook and more. Stainless-steel construction also is available for sanitary, food processing or washdown applications, the company says.
